Definitely had some in his NYC apartments, they feature in photos taken there.

he was super modest about his limited instrumental ability, which is charming as heck.

“I play what is politely called ‘composer’s piano,’ which means I know enough chords to be able to find my way around a song but not enough to sit down on stage, like Elton John, for instance, who’s a wizard pianist. I’ll have a go at anything and get a screech or an oink out of it, and then think, Well, that’s kind of nice, play it three times and it’ll sound like an arrangement.”

Boy, ain't that the truth: " play it three times and it’ll sound like an arrangement.” Man, I miss having that guy on the planet. Even when I didn't like what he was doing, it was interesting seeing where he was at and what he was reading/watching. What great taste.
